Ideal Applicant
Small to mid-sized faith-based or church organizations, especially those with a North Carolina connection or an existing relationship or referral to the directors.
Good Fit
- • Religious or ministry mission and programs (several grantees are churches and ministries).
- • Located in or closely connected to North Carolina or able to document local impact.
- • Requests for modest general operating support or small program grants (typical gifts are in the low thousands).
- • Introduced by a prior grantee, local partner, or an existing contact with the directors.
Geography
Recent giving spans five states but is heavily concentrated in the foundation’s home state, which received about 87% of 2024 dollars; the footprint looks locally focused rather than national.
Recipient Variety
The latest year shows seven distinct recipients, and prior years show larger lists (18–19 recipients), indicating multiple independent grantees over time even though dollars in 2024 were concentrated among a few recipients.
New Applicants
The foundation states it funds only preselected applicants and requires written submissions; while several new recipients appeared in the latest year, the documented 'only preselected' policy and invitation-style behavior make unsolicited entry unlikely.
